Me Myself and I

Mood: Quiet today

I documented my mood as "quiet" although at the moment the word Disappointed would be more appropriate as I just finished watching an exciting Grey Cup in which the Roughriders lost to the Alouettes.  They played their hearts out and it was a nail biting game.

Yesterday I had a fabulous day.  I got the Kubota running in order to clear some snow on the driveway and in front of the house.  Before Hubby left he didn't put the blade back onto the tractor so I had to use the bucket, which isn't too bad, just more time consuming and it doesn't do as nice a job.  Once I had finished clearing the necessary areas, I was feeling confident enough to try and put the blade on all by myself.  And I did it!  Not to make this job sound bigger than it is, but I was extremely proud of myself for doing a difficult task and not getting frustrated.  Not even a little bit.  That hasn't been the case for the most part lately.  Any little frustration would get the tears to rollin'.  No Kleenex required.

It felt so good that I walked around cheering "Yay Me!" to myself for a little while.  Bella, the cat, was very proud of me too.

My social calendar has been pleasantly full lately.  I checked out a jewelry party with a friend yesterday afternoon and then Jethro and I joined a couple of nieces for supper in Radway for a birthday celebration.

Today I was feeling considerably quieter.  Hubby even asked if I was mad at him because I was a bit quiet.  Just feeling mellow, I guess.  Not feeling sad or melancholy.  Just quiet.  I guess my brain decided it was Sunday and thought it deserved a day off once and a while as well.

I have an interesting week ahead.  Work two days, have a day off, and then work two days.  It will be like having a weekend in the middle of the week!

And that's always a good thing.
